ANTENNA STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR SIGNAL CALIBRATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18064047 titled 'ANTENNA STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR SIGNAL CALIBRATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an antenna structure that includes two antennas, a power distribution circuit, and a coupler. The structure also includes at least one processor that controls the antennas and the power distribution.

• The processor(s) obtain parameters for signals received by the antennas and detect the phase difference between them.
• Based on the phase difference, the processor(s) calculate a matching parameter that satisfies a specified condition.
• The processor(s) also obtain a parameter for the reflection coefficient of a signal flowing from the power distribution circuit to the coupler, within a specified range.

Potential applications of this technology:

• Wireless communication systems
• Radar systems
• Satellite communication systems

Problems solved by this technology:

• Unequal power distribution to antennas
• Phase difference detection and adjustment
• Reflection coefficient control

Benefits of this technology:

• Improved antenna performance
• Enhanced signal reception and transmission
• Efficient power distribution

Original Abstract Submitted

An antenna structure includes a first antenna, a second antenna, at least one processor, a power distribution circuit configured to equally supply power supplied from the processor(s) to the first antenna and the second antenna, and a coupler disposed between the processor(s) and the power distribution circuit, wherein the processor(s) may obtain a first parameter for a first signal received by the first antenna and a second parameter for a second signal received by the second antenna, detect a phase difference between the first signal and the second signal, obtain a matching parameter based on parameters corresponding to a case in which the phase difference satisfies a specified condition among the first parameter and the second parameter, and obtain a third parameter for allowing a reflection coefficient of a signal flowing from the power distribution circuit to the coupler to exist within a specified range among the matching parameters.
